As mentioned above, it depends on the mood I'm in. Some good ones have been listed. I recently introduced my teenaged daughter to the pleasures of the ULTIMATE "chick flick"--Now, Voyager.

I recently saw on satellite the last half of the earlier film (Love Affair) that was remade as An Affair to Remember. While there are all sorts of interesting observations that can be made about the two (like how Irene Dunn and Cary Grant were costars in several earlier films but made their marks separately with these) I think the earlier film, with Charles Boyer and Irene Dunn was far better. The dialog is artificial and there are bits of the story that are just plain missing in An Affair to Remember that are spelled out in Love Affair. And the scene when Boyer discovers the answer to why she didn't turn up--his response is much more measured and nuanced than the large grimace that Grant offers Deborah Kerr. While Kerr did alright as a singer, it was only alright, never really convincing. I have no difficulty believing Irene Dunn as a singer. Wow--there's a reason there were so many musicals made when she hit Hollywood! Finally, and I wonder that this didn't dawn on the folks casting An Affair to Remember, I find Charles Boyer much more convincing as a Frenchman and Irene Dunn much more convincing as an American than Grant (was he French or Italian?) and Kerr (who are both British). Duh.

I've ordered the earlier film as a holiday present to myself this year.

SRS--okay--off of my film critic soap box now.
